Note di degustazione
Giacosa has produced a microscopic quantity of Barbaresco from a small parcel of the Asili Vineyard. Only 2,000 bottles were produced. Is it the Musigny of Barbaresco? The 1990 Barbaresco-Asili is a quintessentially elegant, ripe, fragrant wine with wonderfully sweet, harmonious, cherry fruit intertwined with hints of cedar, truffles, and roasted nuts. Full-bodied, with layers of opulent fruit supported admirably by fine acidity and tannin, it should drink well for 15 or more years. Readers should get their reservations in now for the 1990 Barbarescos from Bruno Giacosa, which will be released in 1995. Giacosa, never given to overstatement, compares his 1990s to the 1971s. His 1971 Barbaresco-Santo Stefano is the finest bottle of Nebbiolo I have ever drunk! It is refreshing that Bruno Giacosa, the quiet and dignified winemaking genius of Neive, is the least promotion-conscious winemaker in Italy. Justifiably, he prefers to let his wines do the talking for him. Importer: Vinifera Imports, Ronkonkoma, NY.

Informazioni sul produttore
Bruno Giacosa, ora guidato dalla figlia Bruna, è un produttore di Nebbiolo di culto, che dagli anni '60 in poi ha prodotto alcuni dei migliori Barbaresco e Barolo da vigneto singolo. Le Riserve "etichetta rossa" sono tra i vini più pregiati e ricercati d'Italia.
